Messing about in boats

...there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats. (Wind in the Willows)

A fantastic day spent with my God daughter's family near Market Harborough. After I'd got over how much the three children have grown up in the last few years (making me feel old) we headed out to float downstream in their narrow boat. Jumping on and off to open bridges and play tig along the canal path, we had a brilliant time, what a great way to spend a day!
